News of the bid comes after current goalkeeper Loris Karius made another high-profile mistake last week, the 25-year-old German keeper failed to hold onto a free-kick which resulted in a goal for Tranmere as Liverpool beat Merseyside rivals Tranmere Rovers 3-2 at Prenton Park.

Chelsea are a club also believed to be interested in the players services, with Thibaut Courtouis potentially making a move to Real Madrid after his World Cup performances.

Who are Liverpool most likely to sign this summer?

With fans' anger at Karius reaching breaking point, Klopp has made a decision to swoop for Alisson, but the BBC claims that their world-record fee for a goalkeeper of £62m might not be accepted.

The 28-year-old former England striker was expected to leave the club after being frozen out at Anfield last season and then made just six appearances after heading to West Brom on loan.

Alisson has always been Jurgen Klopp's preferred solution for the problematic goalkeeping position at Liverpool, with the manager's interest pre-dating Loris Karius' calamitous performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
